For a richer flavor, use freshly grated cheddar cheese instead of pre-shredded. If you prefer a spicier cornbread, leave the seeds in one or both of the jalapeño peppers, or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the batter. Buttermilk adds a tangy flavor and tender texture. If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to a measuring cup, then filling the cup with milk to equal 3/4 cup. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using. Serve warm with honey butter or a dollop of sour cream for an extra touch of deliciousness. The cornbread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat gently before serving.
